You can lose games. Even derby games. It happens, but the manner of the loss today is not defensible. They had more shots, more touches in our box and we had the lead. Unforgivable loss. #nufc

“The players have to play like their lives depend on it.” This was a direct quote from Eddie Howe earlier in the week.
They couldn’t have looked any more less arsed in the second half.
Either the message wasn’t received or players aren’t playing for him.
He needs to go. #NUFC

Second-half has been shocking for #NUFC
All too familiar capitulation.

Massive second-half coming up. Game on an edge. Need a second goal badly. #NUFC

@MsiDouglas Taking that same approach you could say we’re three-quarters of the way into the season and #NUFC sit in 9th place behind the big six and Everton and Brentford. I’m not sure that’s on track for a club that wants to compete with the elite beyond 2030.

For three of the four halves of the Barcelona tie, #nufc were great. In the first half it actually looked on - classic Eddie Howe counter attacking display. The fourth was abject and painful though, the defending as bad as I can remember.
End of the season is important - and Sunday huge for the club - but this squad needs surgery. Some difficult decisions probably need to be made, some ruthlessness required.

Not sure I would thank you for Conference League qualification next season. Not really a revenue generator and we’re just not built to handle multiple games a week. On the flip side, it could mean a real chance of competing for a European trophy. #NUFC

This might be our last Champions League night at St. James’s in a couple of seasons. Enjoy it. Sing your heart out. Back the lads. #NUFC

Not capitalising in the first 20 minutes has cost us. We look out on our arse and second best. One game too many for #NUFC?
English

Well deserved opener from #NUFC. They’ve been on it from the kick-off.

@BrianNUFC I think your being generous with half, but I take your point. The players were very comfortable with that setup and having that position be the focal point.
English

@HowaytheToon But we still played have the games without him, and we were rarely like were in the last few home games.
English

Listen, I think that when you lose your top striker and your entire success was built around him, you’re going to struggle - but that was 7 months ago.
We’re still trying to put square pegs in round holes. We just haven’t improved.

@BrianNUFC Say what you want, our team setup was to provide him, and we did that very successfully until he stopped caring after the Cup Final.
English

@HowaytheToon Our entire success wasn’t built around him atall. He missed around half the games from signing because of injury.

#NUFC need to build a team around Bruno, Tonali, Hall, Thiaw, and Livramento. Everyone else is fair game to be sold. Too many of them coasting this season.
